They were kept busy. They all found jobs by the time they were 16. They all kept their jobs because they knew they had to pay their expenses. No car unless they could pay for it, no computer, no xbox, all these things they had to buy for themselves. The “bored” word was never uttered in our house. They learned this before the age of 5. “Bored” meant you had extra time to work, such as pulling weeds, cleaning toilets, etc. Yes, a 5 year old can clean a toilet!

A skating rink, the Big Apple in Kearney would be an example, the activity center that used to be where the GPRMC physical therapy is would be excellent to bring back. There’s just NOTHING in our town to keep our youth busy!!!
